My friend had a baby, so perfect time to make Maria’s box!

Album I created inspired by Forevermore design.

Hi friends! I turned the Kindful Mini Album feature into a standalone project tutorial so you can reference it whenever you want. It’s perfect to slip in a pocket, or attach to a page as a fun extra feature! I also taught the same techniques I used in my Shabby Chic Kindful Mini, Enjoy! Big hugs 🌸

Admittedly light on the “shabby,” leaning into the “chic.” I hope you’ll enjoy my May Challenge project. It was fun to push myself a little.

I just finished my version of the baby mini album! This took me so long because I only have a couple hours after my toddler sleeps to craft, but I enjoyed making this so much! I totally messed up the side pocket on the yellow page, it's supposed to be on the right😆 I love how Frances kept saying that it doesn't have to be perfect, it's handmade! That made me feel 10x's better after my many mess ups.

I love how it turned out, but I'm not one to leave much white space, I tend to cram as much as I can in there making it too busy, but oh well! I loved making the inside layout my own.

✅ I completed the May Challenge book! Have you seen it yet? 😍I think this is the most fun I’ve ever had crafting. I used so many different elements. It was a very mixed media experience and I loved it! You might see a bit more of this from me later on 👀

Here’s the link to the full project flip-thru!

Maria’s Momento Box made into a recipe box that will be filled with cherished family favorites that have been passed down throughout the years and even generations. Went really simple with this one. Couldn’t resist adding a photo of my best crafting buddy!

Mini album I created inspired by the Petals instructional video.

🏔️Thinking about a Utah trip in June!

Hey friends! I’m brainstorming a potential trip to tour the Salt Lake/Sandy this June. My sweet friend is showing me around, but I’d love to see you, too! Nothing is official yet, but if enough of you are nearby, I want to host a special community gathering so we can hang out. I'm also thinking it would be amazing to connect on camera and record a podcast episode featuring you and your beautiful books! Before I book anything, I need to know: Are you in the Utah area? Drop a comment below if you're local and would be up for a get-together! Your replies will help me decide if we should make this happen!

Big smiles,

Frances 🤍
